A Thank you to Jules
I have just returned from sunny Conwy having dropped my newly acquired 75 Tourer off to Jules for some much needed TLC
And a good job too as a few current issues dealt with and a few potential problems highlighted! The fan resistor has been updated, EGR cleaned, Viton O rings replaced the nearly blown OEMs, a slicone Turbo hose replaced. After a T4 session the engine has been remaped and my digital speedo enabled Im extremely grateful that the sunroof drains were checked and a near blockage problem averted! In adittion to the above Jules kindly sorted a few odd jobs like snipping plenem drains, replacing missing undertray fixings, caliper clips (!), topping up my AC gas and cleaning the EGR. Finally the crowning glory IMHO, the badly bubbled fork spoke alloys were replced with some refurbished Meteors and new firestone tyres Here is the man hard at work... She looks fab What Jules doesnt know about these cars ain't worth knowing! Many thanks Jules - see you in September for a few jobs plus her MOT PS she used far less fuel on the way home than the outbound journey thanks to the remap I presume? Lee & Jess

It’s always a good place to get your 75 sorted. Great excuse for a night away in a B&B and see Llandudno whilst Jules does the hard work.

Top man ,Jules, but my memory must be going.
That doesn't look like the Jules I remember. Maybe it is because the photo is small?? |

Its def him LOL at least its the one I met before This is my third visit, each time the 75 has left in a far superior condition to which it arrived. Just a shame I didnt keep each vehicle he'd work so hard on
